Crossley St Cantina

A 100% gluten-free Spanish tapas den in a Melbourne laneway, famed for its Brussels sprouts.

Cosy, dimly-lit laneway restaurant with wooden booths and an intimate, buzzy feel that builds through the evening; alfresco laneway tables add a relaxed outdoor option on warm nights.

Entirely gluten-free, coeliac-safe kitchen; laneway alfresco seating; pre-theatre set menus and larger feed-me/banquet menus for groups; gin-forward cocktail list and bottomless brunch package.

A modern, creative take on Spanish tapas rather than strict tradition. most reviewers praise the inventive flavours, though one felt it drifted from 'real' Spanish tapas.

Small tapas plates read as pricey to several reviewers, but set menus like the $79 bottomless brunch and $120pp banquet are repeatedly called good value for the quantity and quality served.
